I want to set the record STRAIGHT. <br /><br />The Duggar children are PAYING THEIR OWN WAY! TLC is not paying for them. The IBLP conference is paying the way of Jim Bob and Michelle as they are being brought here to speak at the conference in Australia and New Zealand. This also happened for Gil and Kelly Bates last year. <br /><br />The Duggar children are using the money they have earned over the years to pay their own way! I can't remember which children i was told were going, but they are not being given a free holiday overseas. <br /><br />Potentially there may be filming, but it won't be of the actual conference. Conferences can't be filmed, other events they attend or activities they do might be filmed. I don't know if TLC film crew are going, whether an Australian film would be hired instead to film for TLC or if the Duggars themselves would film on their phones and cameras and that footage be used on the show. No footage is guaranteed, The Bates family did not film anything in Australia or New Zealand for the show Bringing up Bates.

Flights are cheaper when you can book them far in advance. They may be able to get some kind of discounts too for having such a large group, and I am sure they have a lot of frequent flier miles. I would never just assume they are paying $2000 a ticket, but whatever they are paying is their business.
